The Mercedes-Benz C-class of compact sedans was introduced in the mid 90s; by model year 2015, the C250 was in its fourth generation and was notable for its use of Benz’s Modular Rear Architecture platform, with extensive use of aluminum for weight reduction. According to the M-B naming system, the C250 iteration was powered by a 2.0L turbo 4-cyl and optional 4MATIC system; the C250 came standard with nine airbags and a full suite of safety and driver assistance features. For model year ‘15, the C250 was available with Base, Sport and Luxury trim packages. Continental ContiProContact tires would be OEM for this make/model.
When you shop 2015 Mercedes-Benz C250 tires, bear in mind that this make/model is designed for a staggered fitment, with different tire sizes in front and rear. Rear tires could be 245/40R17 or 255/35R18, fronts could be 255/40R18 or 225/45R17. You’ll probably have the best results with premium all season tires like the Bridgestone DriveGuard, Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season and Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus (with 65k mile warranty). For more spirited drivers, check out summer and ultra-high-performance tires like the Yokohama Advan Neova AD08R, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2. Just remember that if you opt for summer or UHP tires, they use a softer, stickier tread compound that delivers phenomenal cornering grip, but will stiffen and lose traction in colder weather; these tires shouldn’t be used when it’s colder than about 45 degrees F.
